Distance ( d ) = ?
Time ( t ) = 3.42 s
Velocity ( V ) = 1531m/s
d = Vt / 2
d = 1531 × 3.42 / 2
d = 2618•01 m

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
➦Given : -
- Time taken(t) = 3.42 sec.
- Speed of ultrasound(v) = 1531 m/s
➦To Find : -
- Distance(d) travelled by the ultrasound = ?
➙Distance travelled by the ultrasound : -
⇒2 × depth of sea = 2d
➦On Substituting Values : -
⇒2d = speed of sound × time
⇒2d = 1531 m/s × 3.42 sec.
⇒d = 5236m/2
⇒d = 2618 m.
➙Thus , the Distance of the seabed from ship is 2618m ...
